Re: Re: Why the vast majority should avoid 17aa roids

Good post but the cholesterol level thing is not as bad as you think. I am currently researching cholesterol levels and it's direct link to heart disease. My initial findings have shown that the supposed "link" is weak and due to a lot of subjective reasoning, not to mention unsubstantiated tests and propoganda by the pharmaceutical industry. Once I am finished I will post a lengthy rebutall to all chol level myths and reference it extensively. Also keep in mind that the medical industry and pharm co. make a lot of money selling cholesterol lowering drugs, as a side point the Masai warrirors in Africa who eat a high protien diet and have chol levels in the 300-500 range do NOT suffer from heart disease, this is also prevalent in many primitive cultures, but no explanation as of yet from the medical industry. Also artichoke extract is great for your liver, in the end 17aa may not be as bad as you think. But I will let that dtermination be made after the chol level, post is finished-mkay?

He is correct....there is a lot of research being done on specific lipoproteins and their size relating to cardiovascular disease. One of these is lp(a)...genetically if you have large lp(a) molecules you can have a cholesterol level of 600 and live to be 100, if you have small lp(a) molecules you can have a cholesterol level of 120 your whole life and die of coronary heart disease at age 40. Anyways...food for thought.

Exellent post realgains! I am one of htose that no longer do 17aa's for exactly the reasons mentioned. I find that as an older bbr with a checkered past, it makes NO sense to take 17aa's.
